Pros

* Benefits * Unlimited PTO * Not a lot of oversight

Cons

* The upper management stack for security is more interested with looking good than doing the right thing * Feedback is not taking cyclically, funny for a CEM company * Security senior management doubled down on low morale citing that "It wasn't the lowest in the company" (It was the second lowest) * A culture of loudest voice wins * If you say something or do something that the management stack doesn't approve of, they give you the silent treatment for a few months. * You're only valuable if you make your managers look good * Limited to no recognition of contributions * You don't have a voice unless you are a manager * Your management doesn't look out for you if you're doing quality work and undervalued yourself (compensation) * There's a trapped feeling if you came here and you're trying to clear citizenship requirements

Medallia Response

As the new leader of Medallia’s Trust and Assurance Security Group, I can confirm that we take feedback from the team very seriously and do our best to address all concerns and adopted a mindset to continuously improve. Our team, like the rest of the organization, uses an annual strategy roadmap to guide our quarterly priorities and objectives. The Medallia learning and delivery process also includes weekly leadership team meetings and company open forum discussions. We encourage all Medallians to fully participate and share ideas to make our workplace the best it can be during our Firesides, departmental All-Hands and quarterly employee surveys to ensure an open forum and regular opportunity to solicit feedback in a variety of channels. Part of my own decision to join the team was based upon first-hand observation of Medallia’s practice of soliciting and acting on employee feedback, so it’s concerning to me that you may not feel your voice was heard nor feedback accounted for authentically. If you’re open, I welcome an email to discuss your own experiences, so that I may take your experiences into account as our team continues to grow. - Geoff, Chief Security Officer

Your career is an afterthought. Not worth it.

Pros

Met some good people in my time at this company. Great, inspirational founders.

Cons

'Leadership'. The top heavy organization is filled with first time people managers who train on you. Highly political and people run useless initiatives just to get promoted. Doing great work is not enough. You have to play the game. There is no such thing as career advancement here. You move from one bad org to another and there is a lot of churn in the engineering teams.
